I think it´s happening all over since april, but things will settle down eventually. I withdrew most of it myself, and I guess people will not leave as much on the sites as before, only logical.
I see mails from other poker sites are mentioning that it´s "safe and secure", so I guess they feel the withdrawals as well.

i already dont keep more than i need to play at poker sites, so not gonna cashout my money regarding 'safe and secure' - any site can be screwed in a day but chances are low.

I won't keep much in now but it is annoying I have to agree but if you can't trust the site owners it's impossible to have any faith in online games at all.

I try to keep my bankroll at around 100 $ per site, tops 200, after that it's withdrawal-time. Most of them although are like 20 - 50. And almost always tied up by some bonusregulation or rule that I haven't had the time to meet yet.
This far I have only lost 144 $, I think it was, at Big Bet when they closed down, and I was playing a bonus at Everest and hadn't the time to meet the requirements there.
Edit: On topic: I havenät withdrawn anything, that I don't need to deposit anywhere else.
No I haven't withdrawn anything and won't do that in the near future...but i will move my roll from Ipoker to Party Poker because of the better traffic in cash games!

I have never understood why people keep full rolls on a site, if using bankrollmanagment you only need to have max of 10% at one time on any site, also how do you spend money that is on a site? I have a card witch lets me withdraw from ATMs via my e-wallet, don't see the point in earning money if you are going to "invest" it it be leaving it sat around doing nothing...go spend it or make it work. Yes I think people will leave less on a site, but for now its causing a massive deposit effect.
